Sorry that I haven't written in a while. Life gets away from us sometimes. I'm sure that I have no good excuse as to why, there have been wonderful things to tell you all. For instance, the three weeks that I got to spend at home with family, friends, and other people that I like. I also got to meet the two newest members of my family, Malachi Douglas, and Zachary Aiden. They are both beautiful ginger (red heads in the UK are called ginger) boys. They are growing so much and are so long, both of them have grown about 3 inches in 2 or 3 months. Amazing how fast they grow right from the beginning. It was a good time and I am so happy I went home. I am just waiting now for my Ma to come and visit me. We bought her plane ticket while I was home. So it is official, she is coming in September!
I am currently attempting to look for a job for the summer. I would like to have some work to do to keep me busy and out of trouble. My last term for the year goes until July 3. I have three performances of two shows June 17th through 24th. And my big big big project of my degree is due on August 31. It's scary to think about that. It's weird to think that I only have a little over a year left on my degree. It seems so long when I started.
I found a job that I would like to have for next year. The school has a Chaplaincy that covers various types of religions and denominations, they are looking for a lay pastor to work 10 hours a week. It is well paid and there is just something in me that really wants to do this job. I don't know what it is. I haven't ever wanted a job like I want this one. There will be several different aspects of the job, but I want it. I think it will be a wonderful way to meet more people and to do God's work on campus. (I really feel like I haven't done anything this year.) I am so used to doing things with church and chapel, etc. I miss it, a lot. Please pray that it will go well. And if it is not what God wants for me, God will provide something else that is just as wonderful.
I don't have any deep insights. I'm kind of in a hum-drum way of life right now. I am waiting for the flood of things to do starts up next week/this weekend. But I can only live in the here and now. So I'll continue to accept this gift of rest for now. Love you all!

yea for the update! I did see pics when you were home on facebook! It looked like you thoroughly enjoyed your time! Hope you're doing well...and, Lord Willing, I hope you get the job!
Kristen! It's good to hear from you again. I'm glad your time in the states was such a blessing. I'm a bit bummed I missed you, but I definitely know how those trips can get so packed so quickly!
I will certainly be praying for your job opportunities. This chaplaincy thing sounds really unique...and fulfilling. I really hope the rest of your school work continues to go well, too.
Miss you loads!
Love,
jaimi
You rock!
